Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- AI-generated comics aren't allowed.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

Once you retire, you will be too old and unhealthy to enjoy it.
If you live in America, then one health crisis has the possibility of eating up all of your retirement savings, and the longer you live, the more likely you'll end up dying destitute.
Retirement... savings...? What language is this?
I know those words, but I’ve never seen them in this order before. What does it mean?
My retirement plan is dying 10 years before retirement age
Dying old and sick on the streets, that's what the american dream is all about no?
Boss makes a dollar, I make a dime. That's why I liberate the company's time.
I've said it before, and I'll say it again:
Boss makes a million, I make a buck. That's why I jerk it in the company truck.
I have to admit, it feels like I have much more free time now then during studies. Now I finish my 8 hours and I do not have to worry about nothing. No assignments, no tests, no thesis... I even had the opposite problem, what should I do during the evening.
Let me introduce to you: part time jobs
But I like time and money both.
That's the beauty about part-time jobs: you only get part of the money part of the time!
I have literally never seen a part time job that paid a livable wage.
They're usually shittier pay per hour than a full job and I've no idea why.
Suspiciously 86-percent-of-my-income shaped landlord: hello
I'm trying to find a part-time job for that exact reason, but it's really tough to find one. I mean, it's tough to find a job in general at the moment, but the part-time requirement makes it even tougher. And like the other person said, it's always a compromise between time and money, and not everybody can make such a compromise because they genuinely need a full-time salary.
